Expedition 73 Preflight

Handout photo dated on 07/04/2025 shows A Soyuz rocket is seen on the launch pad at Site 31, Monday, April 7, 2025, at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. Expedition 73 crewmembers: NASA astronaut Jonny Kim, and Roscosmos cosmonauts Sergey Ryzhikov and Alexey Zubritskiy, are scheduled to launch aboard their Soyuz MS-27 spacecraft on April 8. April 8, 2025: A Soyuz spacecraft has just lifted off from the Baikonur cosmodrome, leased by Russia to Kazakhstan, bound for the International Space Station. Sergei Ryjikov, Alexei Zoubritskiy and Jonny Kim will use their stay in the ISS to carry out some fifty scientific experiments, before returning home in December. The spacecraft has been repainted in honor of the 80th anniversary of the end of the Second World War, a time when Americans and Soviets were allies. Space is now one of the last areas of cooperation between Russia and the United States, which is on the verge of collapse due to the conflict in Ukraine. Photo by Joel Kowsky/NASA via ABACAPRESS.COM
